Which word describes someone who is perceptive and quick to understand?

• A. Savvy
• B. Cunning
• C. Anticipates
• D. Anecdote

Answer: (A)

You're looking for a word that describes someone who is perceptive and quick to understand. Savvy fits because it means having practical understanding and good judgment; a savvy person quickly grasps what’s going on and knows how to respond. Cunning can describe cleverness too, but it often implies acting with deceit. Anticipates is a verb about foreseeing what will happen, not a trait describing a person. Anecdote is a short personal story, not a description of understanding.
